Something for Nothing - LIONSHEART

It’s a strange way of making a living

When you’re getting much less than you’re giving

And you’re losing much more than you’re winning

Why do we do it?

I don’t know

Why do we do it?

Art for art’s sake, it don’t pay

To be giving yourself away

It’s for love, there’s no money

What you get is something for nothing

Something for nothing, yeah

All the effort twice the pain

Even though there’s nothing to gain

There’s no choice but to do it again

And again and again

Why do we do it?

I don’t know

Why do we do it?

Art for art’s sake, it don’t pay

To be giving yourself away

It’s for love, there’s no money

What you get is something for nothing

Something for nothing, yeah

If you’re believing in this kind of dream

You may not know when it’s over

You’re given it all, all that you had

For the chance to be just that bit closer

This dream has a hold, you can’t be told

That what you are doing is crazy

You’ll never give in though you can’t win

They tell you you’re blind

That you’re out of your mind

But you think you can never be wrong

Why do we do it?

I don’t know

Why do we do it?

Art for art’s sake, it don’t pay

To be giving yourself away

It’s for love, there’s no money

What you get is something for…

Art for art’s sake, it don’t pay

To be giving yourself away

It’s for love, there’s no money

What we get is something for nothing

Something for nothing, yeah

Something for nothing
